A balanced solution to climate change?   Message List

RE: [irenew] A balanced solution to climate change?

I encourage people to familiarize themselves with the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association’s position on Waxman-Markey (the House cap and trade bill), in the effort of educating and working with local coops on this issue.

 

A letter from last week from its CEO is attached, stating that the NRECA will not stand in the way of the bill’s passage.

 

Here’s a link to the latest statement, in response to the passage of the bill:

I just saw this ad on TV:
http://www.findabettersolution.com/climatechange/


Basically it is our Iowa electric cooperatives telling us that Cap & Trade will put many on unemployment. They oppose Cap & Trade without proposing any other solution. I encourage you to contact our electric cooperatives and ask then to show us an alternative plan. It is easy to oppose change. It is not so easy to deal with climate change.
